Always Got Your Back
He always tries so hard to be there for me. For everyone.
I guess it's the instinct left after you've saved the world twice. Not exactly things you can completely brush off.
In the end, he chose to be with me. Somehow, we just turned and looked each other in the eye, and we knew. We just knew.
Even though he takes on missions and I secretly worry, I know that it's one of the things he does best. So what more can I do?
"Koi?" I slid my arms around his waist, drawing him close for a soft kiss. "You're tense." He slid his arms around my shoulders and drew me in for a tight hug. I fall into his embrace silently. The only times we ever discuss the missions is when he chooses to; I had sworn long ago never to ask. It's not that I don't care, it's just that it will always be his choice to speak of them. For me, being in his arms and feeling his tension seep through me, his letting me take some of that weight, is enough for me.
"A bit," he replied, letting me strip his shirt off and favouring his left arm just a little due to the wound. I leaned down and dropped a light kiss on top of the gauze.
"Let me?" I nudged him onto the floor and knelt behind him.
"Thank you, Duo," he sighed as I set my hands on his shoulders and began to knead at the knotted muscles.
"Don't need to be, koi," I leaned down to place a kiss at the juncture of his neck and shoulder. "I've always got your back. Always."
His head fell back so he could look at me, and I leaned down to kiss the rare smile on his lips before I returned to my task at hand. He sighed again, and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, pressing my chest against his bare back. "Always got your back," I murmured. "Never letting you go."
He leaned sideways into my arm and then pulled me down towards him. He spoke just before our lips met.
"I'll never let you let go."
We'll always be there for each other.
